Seeing the rapid development of VR, it looks like VR will go further than games and entertainment. The following is a prediction of how VR will affect many things in the future.
In the education industry :
Imagine if school children could see what human life was like in ancient times, or see how extinct animals interacted with each other. Then, students can see the respiratory process from the inside by "entering" into the human body.
These things can be possible with VR. A school in Ireland has tested this by inviting students to experiment using VR to create their own virtual world after seeing the historical sites they visit.
With VR, lessons can be packaged more interestingly. Teachers can also take their students to places that are not possible to visit in the real world so that lessons are easier to understand.
I agree. Schools and universities will definitely benefit from using virtual reality and augmented reality in classes. I am glad to hear actual schools are now incorporating the use of VR and AR as part of the students' learning process. I think it will help the students to learn faster and better, and teachers can explain the lessons more accurately, don't you think?
